[HELP WANTED] Galactic Vice - Recruiting

frost_bite · Post by **frost_bite** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 11:12 pm

Hello! I represent a small group of Open Source developers called the Electric Eye Productions. We are looking for talented new members to help develop the next generation of open source RTS / FPS / RPG games.

The game we are currently developing is called Galactic Vice. Galactic Vice is an 3D, open source, RTS game featuring two races at war. Vital mistakes made by a corrupt human empire lead to a catastrophic war against an alien race -- one in which humanity is pushed to the brink of extinction.

We are currently recruiting programmers, 2D / 3D artists, sound artists, music composers, and dedicated testers to help develop Galactic Vice.

All those who contribute retain the copyrights to their work, are given proper credit for their work, and are guaranteed a portion of the net income received from Galactic Vice when it is marketed.

If you are interested please contact me at: GalacticVice@gmail.com
And visit the Electric Eye Production's webpage at: https://matrix4x4.ath.cx/
And check out the Galactic Vice Homepage: http://GalacticVice.com

Thank you,
The Electric Eye Productions.

Nice way to get people interested in your project. Not.
Btw, there's something wrong with your SSL certificate.

No one is really going to be interested in this, unless you have something to show.

My apologies, here are some screenshots to help prove our validity.

The lava bubbles and oozes btw =)

EDIT: ty for the SSL certificate tip. It should be fixed now.

Those shots are nice. Do you have any character models?

Most of the art done for Gv is the aircraft(s). Here is a video of the "Martydom" -- a giant Nazarian (alien) battlecruiser.

It isn't textured yet, but it will be =)

screenshots look good

ty. It is a texture splatted bump mapped terrain with a limit of 3 splatted textures + a detail map. I am working on a new version that supports any number of textures and has parallax mapping

I'm not criticizing your work here, but I'd be more impressed by a gameplay video or the like. Gameplay is a much better indicator than graphics that you're in it for the long run, and it also shows much more the work you've already put in to it.

There isn't anything other than the terrain to show. Thats why I am posting here to recruit programmers =)

Well, unfortunately, that's the way most people get treated here by certain parts of the community. Once you have something to show they will also start to cry for sources. But you should take this as part of the job, it makes you stronger to stand such situations in the future (these folks here are basically friendly, they just don't show it that good

) and it is basically a good sign for success. If it's a bad project or render, no one will be interested

So just keep up your work and try to interest someone. Good luck
